Argentina Updates Tax Free Refunds for Foreign Tourists

  • Argentina’s ARCA updated the Tax Free VAT refund commission table for foreign tourists buying eligible domestically produced goods and leaving the country.
  • The refund is now split into two purchase brackets (VAT included): from AR$70 to AR$570,000, the tourist gets 13% of the total purchase price; above AR$570,001, the tourist gets 14%.
  • These percentages are not of the 21% VAT itself, but of the final price including VAT; ARCA also states the share these amounts represent of the 21% VAT.
  • For purchases from AR$70 to AR$570,000, the intermediary company keeps 25.10% of the VAT amount, while the tourist receives 74.90%.
  • For purchases above AR$570,001, the company’s commission drops to 19.33% of the VAT, and the tourist receives 80.67%.
